KuCoin Futures integration
KuCoin Futures public market data: list every tradable futures contract with its specification, funding rate, mark and index prices, read one contract, get the latest ticker of one or all contracts, the full or top 20/100 order book, the last 100 trades, candlesticks, the current mark price, and the history of the spot index, interest rate and premium indexes, plus the server time and service status. Trading, positions and account routes are not exposed: they need an HMAC request signature. No credential is needed; KuCoin applies per-IP rate limits to public routes.

The workflow builds itself.
What you can do with KuCoin Futures
Each of these is one operation on one endpoint, available both as a workflow step and as a tool an AI agent can call on its own. Nothing bundles several operations into one action, so what a run did stays readable afterwards.
Most endpoints run on the free plan. A few, mainly the ones that publish on your behalf, need a paid plan.
Contract, 2 operations
get_contractGet contractGETReturns one futures contract's specification and live data (mark and index prices, funding rate, open interest, 24h volume and price change) by its symbol.list_contractsList contractsGETLists every tradable futures contract with its specification (symbol, lot size, tick size, multiplier, margins, fees, max leverage) and live data (mark and index prices, funding rate, open interest, 24h volume).
Order book, 2 operations
get_full_order_bookGet full order bookGETReturns the full order book of one futures contract, aggregated by price.
